they most certainly did botch it, but i think it'd be worth looking at how exactly. i think you're working towards something worthwhile but there's got to be compromise regarding adaptations to high population densities and how tight-knit you can have your social groups. if you want, i'll see if i can find some passages that are particularly relevant, so you can get the gist without reading the whole thing?

But how would you send it on Anon?  …I guess I better make some room in my askbox.

So you’re here to be entered into the contest?  We’ll need you to provide a blood sample so that your eligibility can be verified.  Admittedly, I’m not sure if grey spheres can be either Mongolian or Filipino, but I suppose that’s up to the genetics company to determine, right?

i'm not saying people shouldn't live like suburbanites if they're paying for it, just that it doesn't work at high population densities, and it's been tried before, and jacobs objections aren't that it doesn't fit with her aesthetics and preferences, it's that it doesn't work and leads to crime and other social problems. my question really was "have you read jane jacobs lately" to see if you had responses about the pragmatics of past failures, when what you propose doesn't seem that different

I may have to, although I suspect “it’s been tried before” includes “…and they botched it”.

(I did read about the Hulme Crescents, although that may not be close to what you have in mind.)

But as for right now, I’m focusing on my (largely unrelated to urban planning) fiction writing, and for reading, I have that book by LKY arriving soon.  (I don’t actually read that much.  I’m not really a good person, you see.)

you're not the first person to try and duplicate suburbs and small towns at urban densities. people trying that is like at least a third of what jane jacobs was objecting to.

Maybe not every community has to be the same.

Not everyone actually likes cities for what they are.  Suburbs aren’t evil in themselves, they just have too much infrastructure per taxpayer… and particularly if we remove the need for large numbers of automobiles, the math on them changes.

I feel like there should be distinct genres for obviously nonhuman monstergirls (like harpies, the ones with giant snake torsos, Girls From The Black Lagoon assuming that's a thing, it should, that'd be cool) and monstergirls who, though actually nonhuman, use some form of illusion magic or shapeshifting to appear fully human (and possibly their real form isn't even vaguely humanoid). The former is really cool, but the latter is My Thing. I hope that doesn't make me a normie.

This is the kind of Discourse that people come to Tumblr for.

So, as I don't have a tumblr account, in lieu of likes I wanted to tell you: I really enjoyed what I read of Whiteout, and look forward to you publishing more. Also, I'm not sure what topwebfiction rules has for stories on tumblr, but maybe look into it?

This is interesting, since it means that people without Tumblr accounts are either following my blog or being referred to Whiteout, and I have no way to gauge the number of them.

I’ll keep that ranking site in mind, Anon.
